...hide-and-go-seek. Because the experience is the opposite of. aesthetic, Bergman's talents seem much better after leaving the theatre. Once settled in his favorite coffee shop, the new critic will have fun exploring the film's cornucopian symbolism. Two sisters, Ester (Ingrid Thulin) and Anna (Gunnel Lindbloom), and Anna's little boy, Johan (Jorgen Lindstrom), interrupt their railroad trip in a strange country where a strange language is spoken, because of Ester's strange coughing fits. They rent a room in a hotel with long corridors and no other guests (except for the midgets...

Queen Victoria spurred the idea by announcing: "All the women of England will bless the builder of the tunnel for saving them from seasickness," Preliminary borings were actually started. From the chalk cliffs of Dover and from the French shore near Sangatte, mile-long galleries were driven out under the Channel floor.
